Non-sttn 12/27

Well, it seems as if we are still experiencing backlash from our avocado testing. Poor DS. He was in so much pain last night. DH helped me so I could get sleep again but it was a wakeful night. Starting as soon as I can get to the grocery store DH and I are going to go paleo with our diet. I already cut out dairy, it's just time to cut out all other processed foods. I'm hopin this helps DS. I'm also going to start giving him chamomile every day again. We stopped when he threw it up 2 days in a row but I gave it to him yesterday an he loved it. Plus we can work on a sippy cup at the same time without me having to pump and waste 5 oz of breastmilk. Anyway, hope everyone else's nights were better!

Awe, poor little guy. I hope your plan works, it sounds like a good idea. Leyton started falling asleep on the boob just after 7pm! I knew it was trouble. I tried to keep him sleeping for the night but no chance. He was wide awake and angry at 8:30. Didn't go to bed until closer to 11pm. Woke and nursed back to sleep at 1ish, 4:20 and 7:20 them up for the day at 9am. He also woke a couple of times before 1 and rocked back to sleep. I can't wait for nap time already! So tired.

Sorry you're having such a rough time! We haven't started solids yet but I am kind of worried about how it might negatively affect her sleep. Anyway, last night we made the big transition from bassinet to crib! I was fully expecting a sleepless night but I was pleasantly surprised. She was up every 2 hours to eat, but that's typical, and she had no trouble sleeping in the crib. I kept the bedtime routine the same, including nursing in our bed before going in the crib. One time she woke up a couple minutes after I put her down asleep, but she wasn't crying, just fussing a little so I didn't go to her. After 8 minutes of minor fussing on and off, she put herself to sleep! First time shes ever done that at night! I feel like I actually slept better myself because I wasn't waking to every little noise or movement.

I don't post in here often... But I have been having a rough few days. I feel like it's getting worse but it is staying the same - the lack of sleep is just catching up with me and I'm becoming more irritable, cranky, and mean. :( DS is up every 2 hours to eat and lately doesn't fall right back to sleep again.. Just lays there and grunts and whines. He is in a bassinet next to our bed. I can barely function at work. We Bf and I try to let him fall back to sleep when he wakes up because I feel like he shouldn't be hungry every 2 hrs at night but he chows down! We haven't started solids yet but are going to next month (6 months Jan 4). I'm hoping it helps some.. He is almost 20 lbs and born at 6 lbs so I feel like he's eating enough but maybe wants more?? I'm getting stressed :( don't like it!! He slept well until the 4 month regression... But two months later still the same issues!

Star - I switched to the crib with the same results! No change for DS but I feel better not waking at every movement. I swear though I feel more tired which is weird.
Lulu - my DS was nursing about every 2 hrs through the night (used to sttn). He's taken a couple bottles, won't drink more than 3 oz so I'm now sure he's not eating enough through the day. Hoping solids help at 6 months.

We got the Merlin's Magic Sleepsuit for Christmas and I have had her in it the past two nights. Last night she went to sleep at about 10. She woke up to eat at 330. Then fell back asleep and woke up about 7:45 for the day. That is such an improvement and I hope it's not a fluke.

Do LOs sleep a lot after finishing a mental leap? Yesterday my DD fell asleep at the grocery store and when we went shopping. She never does that. She even had a late nap from 4:20-8:30. I was worried about her not going to bed, but she went to bed easily at 9:50. She woke up at 3a. DD wouldn't nurse, she only wanted to snuggle. She woke up at 5a to say good morning to DH then immediately went back to sleep. Woke up for the day at 8:30, and went back down easily for her nap at 10:30a. I'm trying to absorb this because who knows when I'll get another morning like this.
